2nd Book - Dear Mr. Henshaw


Dear Mr. Henshaw is a book set up like a diary.  It's about a boy named Leigh and he doesn't have a very good life.  First, his parents are divorced.  He lives with his mom who works a lot so Leigh spends a lot of time at home.  His dad is a truck driver so Leigh never gets to see his dad.  Leigh and his mom don't have a lot of money so Leigh spends a lot of his time writing to his favorite author Mr. Henshaw.  Leigh has a lonely life.  It's not until he tries to catch a person who is stealing his lunches that he discovers he's worth something!!  Leigh gets a friend and things start looking up.  Leigh uses his diary to share his feelings and learns that he can be happy.
